This review is from: Adventures in Science & Art: Where's Wilbur? (DVD)
This Emmy-winning video blends science and art in a fun mystery about a lost dog and a few grains of sand. Whimsical and fast-paced, "Where's Wilbur?" tells the story of children who must find and save their beloved dog from a mad scientist using a few clues, some scientific reasoning and plenty of creativity. Never has science been so fun!" -- from "The Teacher Librarian" Journal.

This review is from: Adventures in Science & Art: Where's Wilbur? (DVD)
As a school psychologist, I'd recommend this video to teachers or parents interested in educational videos. The DVD is fun to watch and does a pretty good job of teaching science concepts. Science can often be dry and this DVD makes a nice attempt to connect art to science...drawing in youngsters who may not feel excited by science alone. In one scene, a Native American artist, shows the kids how to "paint" with sand, which was pretty interesting. The DVD includes a teacher's guide, which could also be used by parents if they want to take the video to a more educational level. Highly recommended.
